Stalking rods ,...

[Roughtor]

One of my favourite pools ,is gradually being dominated by trees ,I can't cast overhead anymore ..

 

I don't want to spend a lot of money ,so ..does anyone have any experience of NGT 9ft 2.5tc rods ,or can recommend any other 9ft rod ,I don't want anything over 3lb tc..

 

Cheers 🥂

Greys stalkers are bout 2.75 as are the esp stalker 

I like both of them 

the greys are 3 piece and the esp are 2 

the esp don’t bend as well as the greys

Thanks for info ,that's part of what I'm after,a short rod that actually bends ,I tried a ESP ,3lb stalker in a shop, it was proper stiff ,that was a 10ft tho

 

Those NGT ,look good for the money ...its hard finding gear to look at before I buy  as most places I fish are very quiet

I think nick  has/had a set of the NGT ones 

 

you can feel the Cork flexing in the butt on the greys with fish of about mid teens.

i also Chuckeda small spomb out with them if I was fishing with 2 rods.

to be honest I did abuse them and they took it all.
